Giant Bananas Spotted in Oslo: Ish Meets Norway

I normally try to post useful things here for travelers. But hey, I suppose the existence of giant food can prove useful.

In a recent trip to Norway, I found the largest bananas I have ever seen. I suppose they are not really outrageous but coming from a tropical country where we have about 20 varieties, I have never seen this one before and it fascinates me to no end. 🙂

Italy also has Lemons the size of your head. 🙂 Enjoy!

Located just on the foot of Mount Namsan and the famous N Seoul Tower, you can’t miss this area if you’re on a tour of the city. One of the big reasons for a visit?

However, I can guarantee that the beef they sell on the street here is much be...

My friends and I enjoying the Oktoberfest party! Earlier this month, my foodie friends and I attended one of the special "Party Days to Remember" at Brotzeit Shangri-La @ The Fort, BGC.

Sizzle Your Senses: Kureji's Innovative Japanese Cuisine

Kureji is redefining the Japanese dining experience, one sizzling bowl at a time and I got a chance to see what they have to offer! Since 2018, this innovative restaurant has been captivating taste buds with its signature Sizzling Ramen. This unique dish combines traditional ramen flavors with a theatrical presentation, served on a sizzling hot bowl to enhance the aroma and flavor profile. Are you curious yet? My friends and I trooped over to Kureji at Ali Mall, Araneta City and sat down for a fun catch-up session over a carefully curated lunch spread. Of course, we had to try their signature Sizzling Tomato Seafood Ramen. Sizzling Tomato and Seafood Ramen I was a bit skeptical about the tomato-based broth at first, fearing that it might taste more like pasta. However, the rich seafood flavor definitely came through, with just a hint of the tomato tang. The sizzling presentation was definitely interesting, and the interactive experience of timing the exact moment to pour the...
